Out in November.
Superman: Dark Knight Over Metropolis TP Writers: John Byrne, Roger Stern, Dan Jurgens and Jerry Ordway Artists: Bob McLeod, Brett Breeding, Arthur Adams, Dick Giordano, Dan Jurgens, Art Thibert, Jerry Ordway and Dennis Janke Collects: Superman #44, Adventures of Superman #466-467, Action Comics #653-654 and Action Comics Annual #1 $14.99 US, 168 pg
This appears to be one of the first times Roger's Action Comics has been collected apart from the Death/Return of Superman story. Preceded by a few giant-sized DC Universe Special comic reprints and a one-issue reprint in the Superman in the Eighties TPB. This is also Roger's first work with the great Bob McLeod on pencils. They would work together for the next 18 issues.

I like the title.

I didn't love the story, but the three DKOM covers are still gorgeous.

Glad to see Action Comics # 653 included in this as it concludes a sub plot dating back to Superman # 2 in 1986.

It's the heads and capes that I was reacting to — something about the minimalist features and line weights thereabout.
